==Keith Olbermann 24 controversy==
The '''Keith Olbermann 24 controversy''' concerns a January 2007 incident in which [[liberal ]] [[Democratic Party|Democrat ]] political commentator Keith Olbermann attacked the popular FOX television series ''24'' with rather bizarre claims.
On the January 16, 2007 edition of Olbermann's show, ''Countdown with Keith Olbermann'', he launched into a tirade, accusing the widely acclaimed ''[[24]]'' of "fearmongering" and being "propaganda designed to keep people thinking about domestic terrorism to keep us scared". He suggested the show actually has a political agenda to aid the [[Republican Party|Republican Party]], rhetorically asking, "is it a program-length commercial for one political party?" Olbermann even suggested in a subtle manner that the show should be taken off the air with the rhetorical question, "if the irrational right can claim that the news is fixed to try to alter people's minds or that networks should be boycotted for nudity or for immorality, shouldn't those same groups be saying ''24'' should be taken off of TV because it's naked [[brainwashing]]?"
